Synopsis: | Described by one reviewer as 'Hans Andersen meets gritty TV soap opera,' this plays tells the story of a little boy who has never before left home and finds himself cast adrift in the forest after a storm. A series of innocence-losing encounters follows as he tries to find the wicked witch's house where he will find the key that will lead him back home. In this voyage of self discovery the demons of the forest waylay him with their mediaeval style of pagan trickery. The Brothers Grimm characters make cameo appearances, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella and Hansel and Gretel. In this modern reworking, however, the stepmother is an alcoholic nymphomaniac, Sleeping Beauty has been faking her spell out of sheer petulance at her life with her parents. A powerful metaphor the play for a boy in search of adulthood. As he struggles to grow up, he has to overcome confusion, learn about the big bad world and make painful choices before coming home | |||||
